* When MANCOLOR environment variable is set, enable ANSI color escapesru2011-06-032-13/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | in grotty(1). This makes it possible to view colorized manpages in color. When MANPAGER environment variable is set, use it instead of PAGER. Why another environment variable, one might ask? With color output enabled, both a terminal and a pager should support the ANSI color escapes. On a supporting terminal, less(1) with option -R would be such a pager, while "more -s" (the current default pager for man(1)) will show garbage. It means a different default pager is needed when color output is enabled, but many people have PAGER set customary, and it's unlikely to support ANSI color escapes, so introducing yet another variable (MANPAGER) seemed like a good option to me: - if MANPAGER is set, use that unconditionally; - if you disable color support (it is by default), and don't set MANPAGER, you get an old behavior: -P pager, $PAGER, "more -s", in that order; - if you enable color support (by setting MANCOLOR), and don't set MANPAGER, we ignore PAGER which is unlikely to support ANSI color escapes, and you get: -P pager, "less -Rs", in that order; - you might have good reasons for different man(1) and general purpose pagers; - later versions of GNU man(1) support MANPAGER.

* Let users' PATH decide which groff suite to pick up.uqs2011-05-011-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | Let groff pass the -c flag to grotty, which will turn off ANSI sequences. While these are not a problem for our more/less, they get mangled by col(1) and this will result in garbage output. This makes man(1) work together with textproc/groff, in case the user decided to delete the old groff from base (-DWITHOUT_GROFF).
* Overhaul locale handling.gordon2011-04-021-46/+45

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | also in the base set, the man utility when invoked with -a would display pages for each locale in the same tree: $ LANG=en_GB.ISO8859-15 man -wa man /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-15/man1/man.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/man.1.gz /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-15/man7/man.7.gz /usr/share/man/man7/man.7.gz Use continue to break out of the loop for the current locale. This results in behavior more closely matching the old GNU man implementation: $ LANG=en_GB.ISO8859-15 man -wa man /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-15/man1/man.1.gz /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-15/man7/man.7.gz This will still search for a copy of the file in other manual path locations. If there was a /usr/local/man/man1/man.1.gz file, it would still be displayed. This is also consistent with the GNU man implementation. Submitted by: arundel Approved by: wes (mentor implicit)

* Implementaiton of man, manpath, whatis, and apropos written entirely in sh.gordon2010-10-016-0/+1510
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Features of this new version in favor of the old one: BSD licensed -- old one is GPL. Imports configuration from /etc/man.conf and LOCALBASE/etc/man.d/*.conf allowing ports to extend the base functionality. The pluggable configuration can supplement the manual search path (retiring use.perl), add locales, and override language specific toolsets (attempt to merge the japanese/man port into the base system as much as possible). Much effort has been made to make this version mirror the functionality of the existing implementation. For 99% of users, it should be a drop in replacement.
